Cover art for Longshot lyrics by Waking Ashland

to me it can be seen on two levels, both describing relationships. one with a close companion/lover and one with God. i see the links in some of the wording...

"you're everything i try to be" - mirroring a relationship with Christ "the rise and fall to respond to the call" - the struggle to respond to the voice of God "all i need is your hand" - pretty self explanatory "take me, make me" - a cry for God to do just that "I sing a new song" - directly out of Psalms

those are my thoughts

peace
